A tool for measuring carbon footprint

FEPE has developed a dedicated CO₂ footprint calculation tool for envelope production, designed specifically to support members in measuring and managing the carbon footprint of their manufacturing activities.

The tool enables envelope manufacturers to calculate emissions in a structured and harmonised way, based on recognised methodologies.

This provides a consistent approach across the sector and helps ensure that carbon footprint data is robust, comparable, and aligned with established standards.

Supporting transparency and sustainability reporting

The development of the CO₂ footprint calculator forms part of a broader project aimed at providing credible data inputs for wider platforms used to calculate the environmental footprint of marketing campaigns, including paper-based communication.

The platform was developed in cooperation with La Poste and DK, an IT partner, ensuring both technical robustness and practical usability.

By offering a dedicated, sector-specific CO₂ calculation tool, FEPE supports members in responding to increasing demands for environmental transparency, customer information, and sustainability reporting.

The tool helps ensure that envelope products are assessed on the basis of accurate, relevant, and industry-specific data, strengthening the credibility of sustainability claims and reporting across the value chain.
